In the irreverent spirit of fun that made “The LEGO® Movie” a
worldwide phenomenon, the self-described leading man of that
ensemble – LEGO Batman – stars in his own big-screen adventure. But
there are big changes brewing in Gotham City, and if he wants to
save the city from The Joker’s hostile takeover, Batman may have to
drop the lone vigilante thing, try to work with others and maybe,
just maybe, learn to lighten up.

Arnett, Zach Galifianakis, Michael Cera, Rosario Dawson and Ralph
Fiennes. Directed by Chris McKay, produced by Dan Lin, Phil Lord,
Christopher Miller, and Roy Lee, from a screenplay by Seth
Grahame-Smith and Chris McKenna & Erik Sommers and Jared Stern
& John Whittington, story by Seth Grahame-Smith, based on LEGO

Batman created by Bob Kane with Bill Finger; Superman created by
Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster. Executive producers are Jill Wilfert,
